Abstract
A method of repairing hubs for vehicles having full floating axles wherein the hubs are damaged by having at least one excessively elongated stud bolt hole. A template having a plurality of holes positioned to match the stud bolt holes and additional holes positioned midway between the stud-bolt-hole matching holes is secured to the hub flange, by means of studs on the flange passing through the additional holes. With the stud-bolt-hole matching holes as a guide, new holes are drilled in the flange. The new holes are then tapped and new studs are inserted in the new holes.
